NECK PAIN OR HEADACHES? SUBOCCIPITAL MUSCLES AND OAA COMPLEX - PART 2 [ANATOMY AND FUNCTION]... Suboccipital triangle and tension headaches: The second cervical vertebra (axis), is considered the most important of all the neck’s bony structures partly due to its unique dural membrane attachment and also because of the powerful myofascial structures anchoring it from above and below. Deep suboccipital muscles that bind C2 to the occiput and atlas work in harmony with other muscles to balance the head on the neck. Several of the nerves that exit the upper cervical complex travel back over the top of the head to the forehead. The suboccipital nerve, vertebral artery and suboccipital venous plexus must pass through a confined space called the suboccipital triangle bounded by: 1Rectus capitis posterior major 2Obliqus capitis superior 3Obliquus capitis inferior When the suboccipitals become irritated from physical strain, stomach sleeping or emotional stressors, they tighten sometimes squashing the nerves that traverse the triangle. The obliquus capitis inferior (OCI) may be the most under appreciated of all suboccipitals. Arising from the spinous process of C2 and inserting on the transverse process of C1, their primary function is head-on-neck rotation. Often a hypercontracted right OCI is causing reciprocal inhibition and overstretching in the left very common presentation in our chronic stomach sleeper population. The Rectus capitis posterior minor not only attaches to the occiput, but also to the Dura mater. This is the connective tissue sheath which surrounds the spinal cord and brain. Tension in this muscle could cause headaches by disrupting the normal cerebrospinal fluid fluctuations and hence the functioning of the vertebral artery and suboccipital nerve. It is very often said that suboccipital pain feels like it is deep inside the head. The pain is referred to as ‘ghost pain‘ because the pain is hard to pin to a specific location and is hard to define. Clinical diagnosis to which the suboccipitals may contribute: Headaches, Stiff neck, TMJ Syndrome, Sinusitis, Eye strain, Concussion, Toothache. See more
